Its right around the corner! We should have another bracket contest through yahoo or whatever we used last year.

While it looks like another year of failure for the Missouri St. Bears (their only shot is to win the conference tournament), my other team, the UTEP Miners (I lived in El Paso for 4 years), have a decent shot at an at-large bid if they finish strong.

Anyway this is a fun time of year if you are a college basketball fan.

Which team(s) do you root for?

The Wisconsin teams in Basketball.. UW, Marquette, UW-M, and UW-GB (My School)... however it looks as only UW is a lock, and Marquette and UW-GB have a outside shot at getting in.

UW-GB and UW-M basically in reality need to win their conference tourney to get in..

But watch out for this Badgers team.. I think they have enough to make a deep run in the dance.. we shall see.

For some reason, I actually enjoyed watching this last year. I have no favorite team, though, and I usually don't like basketball. A bracket sounds like great fun again.

I'll get in on the bracket thing. I cheer for the Badgers and since i was a kid i loved the Carolina Blue.

But when it comes to the tourney i love cheering for the underdogs.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

I tend to support Wisconsin teams (even though I know little about them anymore).

I always want double-digit seeds to win.

I always want Duke to lose.

+1 for Wade... anyone that beats Duke gets a tip of the hat.
